Description

Anarchic and inspired comedy in which a kidnapped heiress proves to be a more competent criminal than those who abducted her. An adaptation of Il ratto della Francesca, one of Fo’s great Italian farces written for and with Franca Rame. Performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 1994.

About the Author

For over thrity years Dario Fo, oftern in collaboration with his wife Franca Rame, has led the field in political satire in Europe. Outside Italy, Fo s comedies are often adapted to reflect local political conditions, but the essence remains the same. Capitalism, imperialism and corruption within government are typical targets for hilarious, ideologically-inspired attacks on the establishment. Drawing on all forms of popular theatre, Fo s international reputation as an actor, mime and director equals that of his writing. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1997.
